Neuralink Targets Thought-to-Text Clinical Trial in October

Elon Musk’s brain implant start-up Neuralink plans to launch a US clinical trial of a device which it says can translate thoughts to text in October.The company said it aims to implant the device in a healthy person by 2030, with it eventually becoming a commercially available consumer technology. Seo said this type of device will eventually enable people to interact with large language models (LLMS) without using a keyboard or voice input, with the models’ outputs fed back to the user via their AirPods, effectively “closing the loop,” in his own words.The news comes as Neuralink is ramping up its testing on real-life humans. Earlier this month, Neuralink confirmed that 12 people now have its N1 brain implant, a fourfold increase since February 2025. Do you think that Neuralink will zombify humans ?
